So, the packs were not all that great. But the thing with repacks is that if on thing isn't great, there are other ways to recover. In this case, the repack's promised 50 cards and a bonus item.
Starting with the bonus:
A dinged up parallel of Derrek Lee. While I'll forgive a Hostess card frm the 70s that isn't exactly mint, this isn't exactly the same.
Will the 50 cards save this repack?
2011 Topps Kerry Wood - I'd completely spaced on his time with the Yankees. That reminder makes this the most interesting card so far in the repack.
1991 Topps Rookies - Sandy Alomar Jr. - This is showing up in baseball repacks with the same regularity of 1990 Bowman in hockeys.
2007 Upper Deck - Jared Burton
1995 Megacards/Conlon - Lou Gehrig Prototype
1995 Megacards Ruth - .342 Batting Average - Yikes. Lots of this card on the previous card in the box that this came from.
1990 Score - World Series Champion - I love celebration cards!
1992 Fleer - Chris Hammond
1990 Topps - Bryan Harvey
1990 Leaf - Steve Wilson - Cancon!
1995 Summit - Darren Daulton - Can't say I've pulled too many of these from repacks.
1993 Upper Deck - Ron Darling - A pitcher on the basepaths card. Kinda.
1988 Topps - Billy Bean - Not the Moneyball guy. This is the out of the closet guy.
1990 Donruss - Keith Miller - A Met!
2001 Topps - Jay Buhner
1993 Studio - Willie Wilson
1993 Donruss - John Jaha
1992 Topps - Lance Johnson
1990 Donruss - Glenallen Hill - A Blue Jay!
1990 Topps - Rich Thompson - An Expo. Now if I can only add one to my team collection that isn't from 1990.
1993 Donruss - Doug Brocail
1990 Score - Dave Henderson
1994 Leaf - Greg Harris - Sure, this is a baseball card. But that mullet is pure hockey.
1991 Studio - Jeff Rearson - Jeff! Your rear's done! - tm MST3K
1994 Triple Play - Joe Carter - That looks like a nice way to end the 1990 team collection string.
1993 UD Checklist - Roberto Alomar - Back to back Jays!
1993 Donruss - Shane Reynolds - The back of the card implies Shane was 24 years old at the time of this picture. He looks 50.
1991 Score - Jose Rijo
1994 Topps - Ken Griffey Jr.
1991 Topps Glossy ASG - Wade Boggs
1991 UD - Carlos Martinez
1990 Score - John Cangelosi
1990 Score - Joey Belle
1991 Score - Jim Gott
1994 UD Collector's Choice - Julian Tavarez - Given the pace I'm going at, I should get this one posted to
my 1994 Coll. Choice blog sometime around October 2018.
2001 Topps - Justin Thompson - The second card in this box with peeling. Yikes.
1990 Fleer - Bill Landrum
1992 Donruss - Scott Servais
1995 Pinnacle - Randy Johnson - A decent horizontal card.
1992 Topps - Will Clark
1991 Leaf - Rob Dibble - This, on the other hand, with the border unchanged from the usual design, looks terrible as a horizontal card.
2011 Topps - Jose Valverde - Two throwback uniform Valverdes in this repack. That's unique!
2011 Topps - Drew Stubbs
2011 Topps - Luke Scott
2011 Topps - Joel Zumaya
2011 Topps - Jonathan Braxton
2011 Topps - Matt Harrison
2011 Topps - Padres Team - More throwback fun!
2011 Topps - Brett Anderson
2006 Upper Deck Baseball Card Day - Derek Jeter - Kind of an oddball.
2010 Topps - Vlad Guerrero - I've got plenty of this card, but wrapping up with a PC guy is nice.
Despite the damaged cards, this 50 card portion really saved it with all over the place variety. How can I hate something with an oddball Jeter, some throwback unis and the best hockey hair on a non-hockey card?
Nice Jeter. A shame that the Ruth card was so messed up.
